Review on Maxi Smart 🪨 Waterstone Flattener for Flattening Whetstones by Jose Schweigert

I purchased this item on the 21st February so today, after less than nine months of normal amateur use, this is what happened. Very disappointed. For that price I expected it to last me for years. I mainly use it for lapping Shapton ceramic stones. In general, until it happened today, I was very satisfied. This worked fine for me. But 9 months? EDIT: Shortly after writing this review, I emailed the company to report my issue. They responded within an hour on Saturday and very quickly agreed to send a replacement. So I hope the second one holds up better but they stand behind this product.
